Merged
Conversation
dotnet nuget push needs the OIDC token passed explicitly as --api-key with audience api.nuget.org; id-token: write permission alone is not sufficient.

Stack Overview
The publish workflow was failing with a 401 because
dotnet nuget pushdoesn't automatically use the GitHub Actions OIDC token — it needs it passed explicitly as--api-key. Havingid-token: writepermission only grants the workflow the ability to request a token; it doesn't inject it into the push command.What does this PR do?
Adds a step that requests an OIDC token with audience
api.nuget.orgviaactions/github-script, then passes it as--api-keyto the push command. This is the correct pattern for NuGet.org trusted publishing from GitHub Actions.
